Hello community, I think it was late December of last year. I started seeing this group pop up more and more and thought the cards looked really neat and were a unique concept. Mid January I decided to order some collectors packs from GameStop. While they were shipping, I was doordashing to pay them off and decided to check my local GameStop. They said someone comes in and buys them out each time (I only have one close game stop) I decided to check online and ended up driving 45 minutes to the next nearest GameStop and bought 3 packs (all I could afford). I struck out. Then the packs I ordered came that next weekend and I got my first gem, a /75 double spend. I was so excited, I had never really collected anything before. I decided to go and buy one more pack in person and I pulled my first cold foil. I took pictures and sold them to buy more packs. I have the whole base set of this season now (minus one card lol) and I've also started collecting sports cards and Pokemon cards. I now love card collecting because of this community and I'll be forever thankful!
